I feel better with Brown as WR2. And in my draft last night I would have paired him with Jefferson. Which I feel is a strong combo.
same on Julio, and not just because he played at bama…dude is a specimen and I never understood why Atlanta didn’t target him more in the red zone
I've had him on my league of record team for the last seven years. This is the first year I'm not keeping him. And it really hurts. One of my all time favorite players.

I'm picking 3rd overall later this week. It's a .5 PPR league.
I'm assuming CMC & Cook go 1, 2, if either is there I'm taking them.
If they are picked, should I go Zeke, Kamara, or Henry?

I pick 12th in a 12-team league tonight. I have no idea what route to take.

Is this a new league or a familiar one?
What's the roster makeup?
PPR?

I'm just nervous that Jameis won't feed him enough. I feel like historically he didn't throw to RBs. How do I even look that up?

Even without these answers I'd think CEH/Ekeler would be there and be solid. You could also go with a combo like Hopkins/Evans.

Ekler has been going in the top 10 of just about every mock I've done. He did make it to 12 in my one actual draft though.
Whether or not chris's league is PPR and how many WRs teams roster matters a lot.
One thing I will recommend, if it is a PPR, think about taking Kelce with one of those picks. He's the best TE in the game and really acts like another WR. I'd consider taking the best RB left on the board with the 12th pick and then Kelce with 13.
You have to wait forever for your next pick so take a clear positional advantage when you can. There will still be really good WRs for you when your turn finally comes back soon around. And with Kelce on your roster, the first WR you take in round 3 will really function more like a WR2.
RBs will likely be much thinner and middling in round 3.

I think the playcalling will still benefit Kamara

Yeah, I realize I didn’t give much detail.
It’s an old league (about 15 years and running). Rosters are QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, TE, K, Def, and 1 Flex (combo of RB, TE, or WR). .5 PPR. 4 pts / throwing TD for QBs.

Cool. You know your league and their tenancies. Use that to your advantage.
Otherwise, see my above post. Since it's a . 5ppr, I think my above strategy still applies. If it were me (again, not knowing how this tends to draft, what positions they value) I'd be looking to take the best RB available and then Kelce.
If Kelce is gone, then take another RB. That would be my strategy. RBs thin out fast and there will still be great WRs later.

Yeah I'll not jumping other marquee RBs. The top 6 or so are set. I wouldn't reach beyond that talents. But I'd certainly rather have him than Mixon on my team.
